Hi Farmgirls,
As you know we've just had an updated RAOK list go out and there are a LOT of changes. The "old" RAOK Gifts received thread is getting rather long.
So, with a new list and changes, PLEASE post HERE when you have received a RAOK gift.
It is ESSENTIAL that you acknowledge receipt of a RAOK gift so that the sender knows you received it. And, please post right away! It's just Farmgirl Courtesy, Appreciation and Gratitude.
Thanks . . . and have fun with your "Random Acts of Kindness".

Thank you, Sherry Buck, for the birthday card! I especially liked the raffia-wrapped embellishment you used.

Jennifer . . aka "Bayou Girl" . . . sent me the most wonderful gift!
Apparently she drives by "Ceejay" street on her way to her mom's house. So she stopped, took a black and white photo of the sign, framed it in a wonderful frame and trimmed it with red, bandana print ribbon.
What a thoughtful, sweet, gift! I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO PLEASANTLY SURPRISED!!
THANK YOU JENNIFER!

What a wonderful surprise I received in the mail today from Nancy Jo, I just had to share it with all of you.
I really needed a pick me up today so her timing was perfect.
Nancy Jo knows I collect Vintage Post Cards, all these beauties are from the early 1900's. I love them and it means so much that she sent them to me.
So, Nancy Jo thank you so very much. Gotta go put them in my new Card Rack I found at Goodwill on Tuesday:-)
Farmgirl Hugs,
Debbie

I have received several cards over the past few months. thanks so much to my dear farm girls who have thought of me.
I'm a health mess at present so I am a bit out of my routine. I have a list of things to do and sending my R.A.O.K. is one of them. I love being a part of this group it is a really kind way of doing things when you can instead of having to go by a deadline.

Okay I tried to post this once already but things went wanky on me. I have been missing from the forums lately and my Farmgirls of the Southwest Henhouse sister CJ and Debbie (Blessed in Colorado) noticed and have both sent me RAOK's. Both greeting were wonderful missing you cards and hope that all is well. Both also included wonderful tea bags which I enjoyed also. All is fine, great actually. Due to a new association with the National Federation of the Blind (NFB). I am working better and harder for the blind students I teach. Thanks girls for your concern and love to all. Will try to check in more often.

I got a blue hippo! OK, CJ meant it for my son, but it was in a nice ROAK package for me with some great items. I can't wait to use the goat milk soap. Thanks so much CJ.

Love you,girl
